Rehab 101: Using State and Federal Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits

Do you own a historic house that may need some serious repair? Or are you thinking of buying a vacant building and wondering how to afford the fixes? Historic Tax Credits are a crucial tool for making restorations more affordable to ordinary individuals. It works by reimbursing a percentage of qualified expenses.

If you’ve ever been wondering how you can take advantage of these benefits, don’t miss this workshop!

Beth Cumming and Mariana Montes Staines  from The New York State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) will highlight the NYS Historic Homeowner Tax Credit program which can provide up to 20% tax credit to owners of qualifying residential properties. She will also discuss the NYS Historic Commercial Properties Tax Credit, which, when combined with the Federal Rehabilitation Tax credit, can provide a total of 40%-50% tax credit for qualified rehabilitated expenses.

Just recently, the National Park Service (NPS) announced that all commercial/income producing properties historic preservation tax credit applications must be submitted in digital format beginning August 15. Stay up to date on the NPS program here:

The historic homeownership tax credit application process remains unchanged. Please refer to: https://parks.ny.gov/shpo/tax-credit-programs/
